Linking up with Laura at Beholding Glory Charlotte at Spiritual Sunday
Some days I feel strong..... impassioned... excited. Hope and faith pumps me to reach for my dreams and live my best life.
Other days I wake up and think.....life is too hard....too tough....exhausting. It seems like everything that can go wrong does. I'm too tired to care.....too tired to even try. I feel sorry for myself.....and think about all the things I wish I had that I don't.....or about the people who hurt me......and I wish I was someone other than me. It's a terrible place of wishing and wanting and feeling empty.
But then the touch of His gentleness....and His whisper reminds me....I'm here...I got your back....I'll never leave. In those moments...I can forgive everyone who hurt me.....and I can do all the impossibles b/c in His presence....none of those things matter.
His quiet gentle voice in my spirit....assures me the sun will shine again.....the passion will return again.....peace will come back.
When I come into His presence....all my questions become clear...

I think we all have those days, but He has a Purpose and He is so Faithful! I love that song--it says so very much. Great post.
It is so so true, in HIS presence all will be well, peace will come, love will heal, hope will empower. Beautiful honest post.
Yes and Amen..I don't need to say anymore!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I too can relate to this... love how God bends down and encourages us to keep on keeping on. Beautiful reminder.
Beautifully said, and now I can not wait to click the song. It's one of my favorites.
Being with Him makes all the difference in the world.
this song is a beautiful one, but your words, the way you share your feelings, and connect them with Jesus, even more beautiful Nikki. You are a living song... unending... and as we walk to our eternal destination your song gives hope. Thank you.
Love

Thank you for sharing this. Much of which I can relate to.
God Bless - Nita
In His Presence...none of it matters, it's a place we can lay it at Jesus feet. It's a place to fill back up with His love, it's a place where "All is Well". It's Hope shining, it's comfort, protection, a sheild from the fire - it's KNOWING He is our Rock!
Beautiful song...heartfelt.
Love ya sister!

It's his presence, yes, always his presence. That draws me back into a place of strength too. Thanks for always taking us back there, Nikki. Have a great weekend.
So very thankful for His presence.
I too sometimes feels like that and it is good that God understands us. Bless you NIkki:)
I'm unable to go to church this morning and your post and song is just what I needed this morning. I'm thankful for the touch of God's gentleness. Thank you for allowing God to lead you in your writing.
I feel those ways a lot...
and yes, God does help the sun to shine again! ;o)
That's exactly how I have been feeling the past few days. I love how you reminded me that "He's got my back!"
What a beautiful song...and thank you for your prayers for rain too, Nikki
You write about the transition so well!
You know that I have been though days like this too - sometimes a group of days like that - but then you are right - God comes in and changes our hearts and minds. Love, sandie
Thank you for sharing another encouraging post.
Blessings,
Charlotte
some posts that you write are so on target that it's hard to have anything to say because you said it all, this is one of them
I wish I had your faith
You described so well how tired we get...then His voice reminds us the sun will shine again
